Data for the Synthesis of Women’s Participation in Small-Scale Fisheries Management: Why Women’s Voices Matter

These data have been used to conduct a literature review documenting the impacts associated to strengthening women’s participation in SSF management and decision-making. This review provides the first global quantitative assessment of women’s participation level in SSF management and associated socio-cultural, environmental, and economic impacts.
Data collection methods
To perform the literature review, we applied a topical search (in title, abstract, and keywords) in two databases: Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection and Scopus. We ran an initial search in June 2021 and updated it in June 2022.
Data analysis methods
Two coders read the publications and applied both qualitative and quantitative methods (descriptive and statistical analysis) to analyse the data.
